    How did Lopez beat Loma in the early rounds?

    Rewatching the fight now, it appears that of the punches that landed clean, they all came from Loma, while the majority of Lopezs' punches were either hitting air, or body shots from the very end of his motion that either hit elbow, glove, or if they landed at all, did not damage at all.

    examples of these bodyshots:

    I mean there is to many to list. Basically, none of them looked clean to me. When Loma did decide to engage in those rounds, he had very clear 3 punch combinations that landed clean. Lopez had zero clean shots. Under what argument do people who think Lopez won, do you guys think he won?

      Loma didn't do enough from 1-7. That was crystal clear. He fked himself over. Also watching the fight in real time is of course way different that watching it in slow motion afterwards. Regardless of having accuracy, only throwing like 3-5 punches per round through 1-7, is not a good look and an easy way to forfeit rounds.

      Loma and his corner may of had crappy strategy or this was intentional to pass the torch. Go look at all his other fights at tell me when he's ever been so inactive from 1-7.

        In the early rounds, according to some, Lopez landed a lot of clean body shots. He clearly landed no shots to the head.

        But in reality those body shots were not clean. We're talking about the early rounds here:

        -Either he was flat out hitting air
        -Or he was hitting glove and elbow
        -Or he was at the very end of his punch, all power was lost, and did no damage



        Luckily its 2020 and we have full fights available so that we can do this. Give me timestamps of any of the "a lot of clean shots" in rounds 1-6 and I can give you punches from Loma of the same round that were cleaner.

        If any of these supposedly clean bodyshots did any damage, it wasn't apparent in any round past 6 because Loma almost KO'd him. I think Lopez may have only one 1 of the later rounds.

        Thats not how you score a fight li'brah

        >Loma didn't do enough from 1-7. That was crystal clear. He fked himself over.

        This is only true if the other guy actually did anything. Lopez did NOTHING. He doesn't get to win a round because we expect Loma to go out there and dominate. That's the worst logic ever.


        >Regardless of having accuracy, only throwing like 3-5 punches per round through 1-7, is not a good look and an easy way to forfeit rounds.

        It's way better to throw 5 clean punches than it is to throw 100 punches swinging at air, and moving forward without cutting the ring off. Maybe I'm just not used to where boxing is going now a days but that would NOT win you the round when I was growing up, especially if the other guy landed clean, even if it was only a little bit.

        >Loma and his corner may of had crappy strategy

        No it was a perfect strategy fighting a bigger stronger puncher. Boxing and it's judges is the problem.

          Teo didn't beat loma in the early rounds it's just loma's inactivity that cost him the fight.

            Was Lopez being active? Give me a timestamp of him being active.

              Lol maybe you should get artorias on the case.

              Loma's a damn good fighter but he lost. It isn't the end of the world.

                Judges dont have the ability to watch fights in slo mo and alot of Teos punches looked like they were landing even if they weren't.
                The sounds Teo was making whilst punching also made it sound like they were doing damage.
                Also Loma not engaging also biased the judges in my opinion.
                I think Loma won that fight if we are going of clean effective punches but it's all too fast to judge correctly in real time.

                  Lopez was clearly more active and aggressive than Loma in the early rounds
